If you have extra bucks you want to SAVE transfer it to precious metals able to preserve purchasing power. It's not an investment it's the ultimate means of saving assuming you hold gold and silver in you hot little hands or deposit it in the bank of mother earth.

What DID Ravel do to yield the verisimilitude of spontaneity? I never had such lessons when I went to school. Music lessons in my school was singing, which was fun.

I think all the time us mortals spend on digital id security, and correction steps from provider errors, should be billable.

Good tips and great advice. I would add can you change, if you do not want a cat or dog and they do, can you change, or the other way around?

More than a few small private colleges are closing, a degree from a defunct college may be suspect.

How to do Life, fifth printing copywrite 2024 The text and pictures are good, but no index. On line 10 of page 50 his should be him. On high school education if you do not take chemistry can you pass Organic chemistry in college if you want to go to medical school? If you do not take basic calculus the science and engineering fields may be all but impossible to pursue in college. Parents may want a tutor to help their children. The ACT is a good way to determine a college fit. You want to be in the top 25% of the score range so you are one of the more capable students and can-do extra-curricular activities. As you say sports, theater, debate are good activities in high school and is it not better to stretch yourself than aim for a perfect GPA?

Many women have, as have most men, found out that a job is just that only a job and you need to form your own life.

When people complain about life being harder, indeed, many of these are the reasons. Modern life is surely a constant struggle for many. A lot have chosen it's too hard or not worth it and have added to our homeless populations.

if Jews will not help Jews, who will?

fun!! you look so happy and pretty in blue!!

Someone once said the problem with America is that stupid people are filled with confidence, and smart people are filled with doubts. You pretty much nailed modern life, Marty.

When I was a kid if someone mentioned “password” I thought they were referring to the game show.

My mother used to say to me"along the uncharted path of the future, I see the footprint of an unseen hand."

so 4 years later, still you still believe in COVID ha ha... chreers mate

College is as college does

why does it say 1 day ago when it's from about 20 years ago

Never change, Marty ❤️ routine builds character :)

I ensure not to identify with any political ideology. No political side fully represents my views on everything, so by not picking any side, I can never be wrongly accused of taking a stance on any particular issue that the majority of the left, right, center, or otherwise, tend to believe in. I am simply an individual. This prevents anybody from knowing my views on a particular topic unless I explicitly share it with them. In today's polarizing world, publicly identifying with even a portion of a political side can mean instantly creating enemies. I have no interest in that.

I remember attending a session on meeting etiquette a few years back, and the first rule of meeting etiquette was, “Is this meeting really necessary?”

Very sensible

I agree that the greatest weaknesses of libertarianism are with respect to poverty and regulation. But I disagree with you about their anti-war politics. The best point libertarianism makes is that war planning (or really, warmongering) is the most extreme form of centralized planning, and it's therefore most likely to fail. Libertarians usually acknowledge that the American Revolution had to be fought because the British empire was too oppressive, and the British empire lost because it was overconfident in what military force alone could do in managing world affairs. This is also why the US lost in Vietnam. Libertarians would also agree that World War 2 began as the result of overconfident war planning before, during and after WW1. It could have been prevented if western "crony capitalists" weren't supporting Italian and German fascists in the first place to protect their "crony capitalist" profit interests.

It would actually be quite cool to hear more of your thoughts about rose breeding.

Your client needs to move to San Mateo; forty bucks minimum per hour handyman… We need skilled labor wages minimum for sure! He should join a union.

As a society we see to have transferred belief from religion and miracles to medicine and education. And when doctors and teachers turn out to be only human, not magicians performing miracles, we turn our fury on them.

I've never been rendered emotionally devastated/uplifted in fewer words. Thanks for sharing.

This fictional piece strikes a very personal chord, as I relate to the narrating voice's description of childhood. I enjoy the 'to-the-point' storytelling you have here and the ending was thoroughly uplifting. Thank you for sharing.

We are on the way to an airport -- thanks Marty...I think.

Your story reminds me of a T-shirt I once saw that read: Eat right. Exercise. Die anyway.

Love these! As always, these are useful gems. More one-liners I’ve gleaned from your work: Status is the enemy of contentment. Family is overrated. Environmental issues are treated not with cool-headed scientific analysis, but heated religious fervor. The more prestigious the school, the worse the quality of instruction is likely to be. It can be wise to forgo State U for You U. And perhaps the one that is most potent: Never look back. Always look forward.

These are so good

Thank you Marty

I appreciate this!

ur awesome man, how are u doing

Thank you for reading this. Made my English homework much more entertaining!!!

❤

THANK Y0U

Are you buying transportation or prestige? Are you buying function or display?

For me, it’s blueberries.

That is one of the most uncomfortably racist descriptions of a group of people I have ever heard in my entire life. Ah yes, “The muddy, diseased Arabs couldn’t figure out how to grow their own food effectively, so they had to come crawling into the good, civilized land of Isreal to eat theirs.” I am honestly baffled how someone can say anything along these lines without a single moment of reflection. I find it extremely difficult to consider any of this as a rational argument when you have such a simple, negative, borderline cartoonish view of the opposing side. You claim to be against the long history of dehumanizing Jews (as we ALL should be) but speak of another group in the same dehumanizing manner. This is a _glaring_ flaw in the very basis of your argument, and if you’re truly ignorant of it, you must be made aware.

Thank you this was succinct and helpful!

Much of this is also true of the CAT.

I am waiting for your reply

Hello 👋 how are you brother I am big your fans please reply 😢

I personally think that, with respect to the future, all in all, we’ll have neither a utopian nor dystopian future, but we’ll most likely have a future in which we’ll all muddle through in the face of both significant breakthroughs and significant crises.

I always assumed the Dems grabbed blue because red was associated with communism.

"Grass doesn't grow on a busy street" is a quote I heard long ago regarding balding. I take it to mean that there's little resources remaining for the body to grow hair on the head of an individual who is so often using resources in that area (the brain) for continuous thought, research and learning.

Mr Nemko, I don't suppose you would read something for me and tell me what you think? From what I have seen it is not your sort of thing (I write sci fi shorts) but I would really appreciate at least a technical review from an accomplished writer, if you could spare the time.

The afterlife as a balm for a hard and painful life?

You truly defined accompanying.
